Remember you must give way to any vehicles already on the roundabout before you enter. And if the lanes approaching the roundabout are marked with arrows, make sure you follow their direction.

Otherwise, if you're planning to turn left, here's the way to do it.

Approach the roundabout in the left lane or line of traffic. Then, signal left as you approach the roundabout. Continue to signal left as you exit the roundabout and turn your indicator off after you've exited.

If you want to drive straight ahead on a roundabout, you can approach without signalling. But, make sure you signal left as you exit and turn your indicator off after you've left the roundabout.

To make a right turn, approach the roundabout in the right lane or line of traffic, then signal right as you approach the roundabout and continue to signal right until you're ready to exit. Then, signal left before you exit the roundabout. The same rule applies if you intend driving beyond the right turn exit.

Signalling on roundabouts is simple, when you know the rules.

Going straight ahead

Position your vehicle in either lane unless the arrows on the road or signs indicate otherwise.

There is no requirement to use your indicator until ready to exit.

Give way to all vehicles already on the roundabout.

Before exiting, use your left indicator and follow the exit lane marking.

Stop indicating once you have exited the roundabout.

Who gives way at a roundabout?

A vehicle approaching a roundabout must give way to all vehicles already on the roundabout.

In some cases on a multi-lane roundabout, it may be necessary to change lanes before exiting. In this situation, it is the responsibility of the driver changing lanes to give way to vehicles in the lane the driver is moving to.
